Explore Live Cams in Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia (المملكة العربية السعودية) covers most of the Arabian Peninsula, about 830,000 square miles (2,150,000 km²) between the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf. Vast sand deserts and gravel plains fill the interior, green terraced mountains rise in the southwest, and long coastlines are fringed with coral reefs and mangroves.

Its most famous natural landmark is the Rub' al Khali, or Empty Quarter, a sea of towering sand dunes in the south. The Asir Mountains near Abha rise to about 10,000 feet (3,000 m), the highest land in the country. The Arabian camel, raced and bred here for thousands of years, is a proud symbol of desert life.

Arabian oryx and gazelles have been returned to protected reserves, and work is underway to bring back the rare Arabian leopard. The Red Sea reefs at Thuwal teem with corals, turtles and reef fish. The ancient tombs of Hegra at AlUla and the red dunes of Uruq Bani Ma'arid are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Did You Know? The Rub' al Khali is the largest continuous sand desert on Earth, covering about 250,000 square miles (650,000 km²), an area larger than France.
